7w ago - Following up on the previous updates, today CapetLeVrai shared a video demonstrating PSP game ISOs running on Sony PS3 Firmware 4.41 with details below.

To quote (via Wololo): You might remember the psp2ps3 tools, and all the excitement a few weeks ago around a recent hack breakthrough that allows people to run psp isos (and, potentially, homebrews) on a hacked PS3, by “camouflaging” the game inside a PSP Mini.

Although people believed this trick was reserved to PS3s running a Custom Firmware, this might become an incorrect statement very soon…

I was contacted by scene member CapetLeVrai who apparently found a way to run those PSP ISOs on a non hacked PS3 running the latest official firmware 4.41.

The current technique will probably not blow your mind for now, as it requires you to own both a hacked and a non hacked PS3, but it could open huge opportunities in the near future if the right people decide to look into that. The basic idea is that after...

61w ago - Following up on their previous update, today the Spanish PlayStation 3 developers at DemonHades have made available a demonstration video of JFW-DH 3.56 MA PS3 CFW running PSX iSOs including Resident Evil through emulation by the Dynarec system.

To quote from Chekco, roughly translated: Hello friends, today I come to present a powerful tool for Dynarec devs exclusively for our JFW.

Dynarec MA is a port to the old and powerful touch-up system made by AerialX lv2 (Creator of PSL1GHT) over there in 2010 as many touristy even ignore the fact that not everything old is useless, Kammy in the parcheaba 3.41 lv2 to get it ready to run dynamic code recompilation (known by many developers as Dynarecs).

In 3.41 was reached even shuffling dreamcast emulator but the future of this was not very fast because this kind of thing that limited many developers but had kammy is also possible to debug easily (Receive Printfs by socat network) besides having the ability to run JIT code (Anonymous could put to good use to this in his Emulator which only rulaba Dynarec well (best speed close to the full-speed) on 3.41 so far...)

This video shows how MA356 supports the new or revamped Dynarec,...
